Get Ready For Mischief And Mayhem In New Upcoming Solo Loki Comic Series

Marvel is gearing up to release a new four issue limited comic series starring everyone’s favorite God of Mischief, Loki. Written by Dan Watters and art by Germán Peralta, the series will feature Loki tracking down a collection of ancient Norse weapons created by himself. When they are scattered across the realms including Nidavellir, Kree space, and Earth, Loki must track them down to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands. He will go head to head with iconic Marvel villains, provoke Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, and be forced to confront the dark truth within himself. It sounds like it will be a fun adventure to go on and the creators had a lot of fun making the series. Watters says:

It’s hard to say what a delight it is to be making my Marvel debut, even more so to be doing it with the God of Stories himself- taking him all the way around the Marvel Universe and back again… …I can’t wait for all to see the beauty German’s art is breathing into this tale we have to tell you, full of magic, danger – and if Loki can’t help himself (he can’t) – quite a smidge of mischief.

This will mark Peralta’s debut to Marvel and Loki couldn’t have been a better choice for him. In his words,

Loki is one of the most interesting characters, not only in comics, but also in mythology, and his ambiguity in all aspects of his life makes him a very interesting character for an artist… …I always say that I really enjoy drawing villains, but Loki has everything. It was ‘love at first sight’ when I read the script. Dan is amazing, and I'm sure he's having a lot of fun with it too. I can't wait to draw Loki’s expressions, since there are always double intentions with him, and it's going to be very entertaining to play with that, as well as everything related to his universe. Having the opportunity to draw Loki is undoubtedly a beautiful way to start the year. It's going to be a road full of challenges, but I'm sure it's going to be a great journey.

The cover done by Rod Reis is really cool too. The style for the cover is really beautiful and dreamlike, perfect for a God that makes it hard to tell what is real and what isn’t. You can find the first issue of Loki when it releases this June.
